- The Court of Tax Appeals clarified the validity of a VAT deficiency assessment against a sole proprietor.
- The taxpayer argued the collection was time-barred due to the three-year prescriptive period.
- The CIR claimed the assessment was presumed correct and should stand.
- The court ruled the three-year prescriptive period applied, was not suspended, and the CIR failed to collect within this period.
- As a result, the collection of deficiency taxes was barred by prescription.
